An impression seems to have
gone abroad that the school meeting
in our district on the evening Of the
5th was to determine whether or
not the teacher should be discharged.
This is a mistake. The teacher had
suspended two pupils. one for using
profane language and the other for
continued bad conduct, and the
board simply desired to meet and
get the facts in the case.
The teacher made an explanation
which was accepted without ques-
ton by all present including the COM
planning party. And it was shown
by an exhaustive opinion from
Supt. Fate that the teacher had not
exceeded his legal authority, and
the board did not pretend to ques-
ton the justice Of the teachers act.
Nearly all the patrons Of the
school were present and it was de-
termined without q dissenting vote
that Mr.. Kennedy should have jur-
isdiction over the children of the
district from the moment they, leave
home in the morning until they re-
turn in the evening. 1t was also
decided that he should use corporal
punishment whenever it seemed
proper to him to do so.
Our teacher is giving excellent
satisfaction and he has the entire
confidence and support Of every one
who has taken the pains 10 observe
his work. He understands HI bus.
iness thoroughly and i not aifaid q

The bowling prairie fire is abroad
in the land. We learn that several
stacks of hay were burned west of
town last week. There are thous-
ands of stacks of hay ON the bottoms
near this city that have no fire pro-

prairie fire will some day sweep them
all out of existence. They should
be protected at once.

cheapest. Spring water costs less
than corn whiskey; a box of cigars

often costs a man more in 20 min
utes than his church subscription
amounts to in three years."

FORKS ELKHORN, FRANKLIN
COUNTY, KY, July 7, 1887. !
Dea, Nephfzp:
I'm stopping here for the pres
ent. | had made up my mind to
spend the balance of my days at
Bald Knob, but two small CirCum-
stances caused me to change my
mind. One was leaving the Dem
ocrat party, the other was being
in favor Of the railroad tax. |
would advise my uncle Dan Moore
to emigrate at once, and stay away
until the Knob gets her portion of
the Blair Bill. The people are
not bad there, but they don't know
any better. Some of them don't
want to know, for they stop news
papers, the greatest means of dis
seminating knowledge in the
world. My prayer is that they
may be forgiven, for they know not
what they do.
A majority of the Bald Knob
ers are in favor of seeding from
Franklin county. Their plan is
to Sut off portion of Shelby
county, beginning at Stiver's Mills,
on Six Mile Creek, running across,
